Beautiful, happy and healthy budgie, a darker blue than in the picture. They get along with the other budgies I have
Orvan (verified owner) –
I have purchased two lutino parakeets from you and both had wings Clipped so severely that can’t fly. A beautiful yellow one purchased on January 16 still can’t fly. I feel terrible for it. Almost albino light blue one that I just purchased last weekend is almost as bad. Do you do that intentionally to the Lutinos?
Pretty baby (verified owner) –
He has pretty purple, blue and grey colors and very talkative, social. I bought another one to keep him company and they are very social and need companions
Bird Sky (verified owner) –
We name him Sky. Sky is a handsome boy and quite active. We started to let him out of cage for one hour a day. He is good flyer and flies to everywhere. We love Sky.

Very unusual, teal blue Parakeet with pretty, black wing markings, white face. I named him Indigo. Very Healthy, active, vocal little bird. Seems to be sociable in a large cage, with my other two Parakeets and one Lovebird. He enjoys the two swings, millet sprays, cuttlebones.

I bought a blue budgie from petsmart in October of 2020. I loved this bird with all my heart and made sure that my little Finn had the best care. He had a large cages, was fed a proper diet with pellets and veggies, and got his cage cleaned 2 times a week with his water being changed every day. I made sure he had safe toys and that i removed any toxins from my room and home. He was amazing and so sweet while he lasted, but on January 13 he passed away. I was devastated and we still don’t know what made him pass. We think he had a bacteria or organ problems because of in-breeding in large chain stores. After he passed a bought a hand raised cockatiel who i have had for almost a year. She is amazing and the sweetest ever. It didn’t take any time for her to warm up for me and we have had no health issues with her! My point being that pet stores do not take the best care of their animals, if i were you i would pay the extra money for a locally bread bird, who has had proper care. Rest In Peace Finn

I lost a parakeet and the next day I bought a blue parakeet to match the blue parakeet I still have. The two blue parakeets became friends quickly. New parakeet is experiencing the new things in a big cage.
Parakeet22 (verified owner) –
I got my adorable blue budgie recently and he is so awesome! He was a little bit shy at first but later he started playing with the toys it bought him. He is very friendly and chill around me. He even started preening around me on the first day! Totally worth it.
Svshch (verified owner) –
Why did you clip the wings of parakeets? My blue parakeet can’t fly and falls every time when he tries to do it. I bought another parakeet from your store three years ago with not clipped wings and he had self confidence from the first day. Now he is flying freely in my house and never falls. This new pet is trying to follow him and can’t fly even 3 -4 feet. I am afraid that he can harm himself.
Monzie (verified owner) –
Beautiful, sweet little bird. She is still in quarantine but seems to be bonding to me well. Eventually I’m hoping to introduce her to my older bird so they can be friends in the big flight cage that I have. Very happy with this parakeet.

This bird chirps all day and gets minimum amount sleep. He won’t eat out my hand. Therefore I can’t take him out so he can have some freedom. He’s fighting his reflection in the mirror. He eats well though.

I bought two birds -one was clipped and one was partially clipped-only complaint is I wish they would not be allowed to hurt them like that as babies and restrict it

I called my Petsmart after work on May 9th. They told me that there was only one left. I went over to the cages and there he was waiting for me. He is already attached to me. He also already sits on my finger, my arm, my shoulder, etc. He loves his head scratched too. He is such a sweet baby! I named him Taz.

MillieJr (verified owner) –
I bought this baby bird while out of town to give my older parakeet company. I have decided to keep them separate and try to tame this one right away. I waited too long for my older parakeet. He/she seems like a really nice bird and I am in the middle of trying to tame him. So far, so good! He seems to be a really sweet bird and not too skitterish!
BeeceBoogie (verified owner) –
I got my budgie a little over a year ago and he is an amazing companion! When I picked him out, I chose the most tame-looking bird in the cage, and he remained very nervous and kept to himself a lot. Eventually after taking him out a lot and spending a lot of time with him, he warmed up to me and will fly around and climb me while I do homework, but he is still a bit of a loner by nature so he likes to spend a lot of time playing with toys in his cage. Just note if you’re looking to buy a budgie that they’re a lot of work, need a lot of attention, and will likely have a different personality than birds you see on the internet or a friend’s bird.

I love them so much they are not that messy so far, and they love each other! as soon as i took them out of the travel cage they flew to each other. I did do 6 months of research before getting them tho. it was worth it tho.

Bird Mom 44 (verified owner) –
We welcomed a new parakeet into our home ten days ago. We are experienced bird owners who adopted this bird to replace an elderly parakeet who recently passed away and had been a good companion to our cockatiel. The new bird is playful and vocal and settling well into his new home, and our cockatiel is thrilled to see a new friend in the parakeet cage across the room. We are happy with the well cared for animals offered by PetSmart. Just tell your breeders to stop banding their birds. I almost did not buy him because of this but he just seemed like the right bird.
Kathie T (verified owner) –
I love having a parakeet again! Corky, as I call her, seems healthy and content in my home now!
Ne Na (verified owner) –
My daughter was thrilled to finally get her first per outside of a goldfish at the age of 12. After having a 98 overall average for the semester, she earned whatever she wanted. The parakeet was so beautiful in color. It went from not eating to eating a lot. We walked back into the room and noticed the parakeet not moving and clinched to the bottom of it’s cage. It was breathing but not moving. The parakeet passed within the next hour. My daughter was devastated and depressed.

Franklin19 (verified owner) –
I adopted Franklin at PetSmart five months ago, and just before COVID-19 restrictions.
She looked exactly like my budgie when I was an unwell child. “Ken” was with me for 10 years and gave me extreme happiness during my illness.
Now, 40 years later, Franklin is comfortable flying high around my house, and giving my family a taste of my childhood companion, and how much fun it is to care for and love another family member in the animal minagerie we’ve created at home.

I have boughten three blue parakeets in the from petsmart (yeah I really like the blue ones) two of them have been unfriendly I have tried to tame them but they are to traumatized of humans so they screech at when I’m near them and they would often bite me when I tried to touch them so I don’t do that anymore.
They come from bird mills which are like puppy mills but for birds so they have mental problems,PTSD ,stress and anxiety and they will always be that way.
Blues clues 10 (verified owner) –
I bought her 10 months ago home home today she was laying down on the floor of her cage. I don’t know what happened to her. I haven’t done anything different same food and drink everyday unless I over fed her. I understand that parakeets live a life span of 7 to 10 years. Not sure if I should be angry or buy another bird. I also think that the guarantee should be longer than 14 days. I want to rate 3 and a half stars only this reason

This store is so low quality and treats its animals like crap. The birds are stuffed into way too small cages and grabbed at by the employees. Mine died within a year, and the food that was said for budgies was too big for them to eat.

First of all I want to start off by saying that they got the gender wrong and also my blue but she was very very skittish and was constantly stressed 3 days ago my budgie passed away and my other one got extremely devastated and this bird only lasted a month so yes I do recommend you do get a budgie but choose wisely

I bought a white and gray parakeet. It is very pretty, quite young and healthy. I think it is a male. The parakeet is quite shy but is getting accustomed to his new surroundings.The price was quite good, so I am very happy.
ItzKC (verified owner) –
I got my budgie a few months ago and I adore him! But the thing is that the people sometimes get the gender wrong but I don’t mind. My budgie is really smart, he learns tricks really quickly! Some helpful tips: Don’t jgive your budgie a seed only diet, they have to eat pellets, fruits, and vegtables, iceberg lettuce SHOULD NEVER BE FED TO YOUR BIRD. You should buy a flight cage, it should be really roomy even if your bird is small. Never scream or punish your bird, and DO NOT grab your bird. Be gentle with your bird and never scream at it. Also I recommend you research before buying this bird. Recommend to buy 2|Fact:Sometimes workers at pet stores will tell you really specific things and some of them are not true and could cause death to your bird

We bought two in February (one yellow, one blue). One passed away around 4 months later, seemingly due to congenital issues. We bought another one around a week later to start putting through the quarantine period. It died 6 days after we bought it. The necropsy report said that it wasn’t in good condition. It was also older than we were told it was during purchase. Thank God we were able to get a refund.

Birdies223 (verified owner) –
I bought our first parakeet at the same store than this one because of great costumer service and how they handleded the bird. We are happy with the 2nd bird although debated about returning him. We was very temperamental while in quaranteene before having him be with our other parakeet. He tried to escape the cage. After putting the two parakeets together, he lightened up and changed. He difinitely has a different personality but we like him and, of course, kept him. No more trying to escape the cage. He’s happy where he is and that he has another friend to hang out with.

My husband and I purchased a blue and a green parakeet 3 days ago. Today, I am happy to report that I had both birds sitting on my hand eating millet! The green one was really hard to net when we purchased so I knew he would take some time. We purchased them around 7 pm so when we brought them home we put into cage and just talked to them. The 2nd day was the first full day with them. I talked to them all day long and just stuck my hand in the cage. They were very timid but I put budgies on Youtube and they came right out of their shell. at the end of day 2 I introduced millet to them in my hand, the blue one came and started eating, the green one took some time but he eventually came for a snack. Today is day 3 and I had them both sitting on my hand eating millet. These birds can be tamed you just need to take your time and build trust. I have never owned a bird but with lots of research and time with them we are bonding!!

Sydney is a beautiful bird (Blue Parakeet). We got him (or her) to be a companion for the parakeet that flew down from a tree and into our lives 6 weeks ago; Mr. Skittles. They quickly became friends and sing and chirp together. Sydney is healthy and not afraid of people. I think the birds at PetSmart get enough human interaction to easily transition to a forever home.

I adopted a female Parakeet. The 2 employees were fantastic and took great patience and care getting her from the group of parakeets. She’s a tiny lil thing and settled down once I got her home in about 24 hours.

We bought Maxwell when we bought Harrison. My daughter has loved birds for as long as I can remember. She loves both of these birds. She spends time with them and they are getting to know each other well. The birds even let’s us hold them as we walk around the house.

He is pretty quiet, I was worried he would be noisy. He will sing and sqwack if I turn the music on near him, but generally not noisy. He does fling his food seeds out of the cage when he eats. So I’m thinking of a splash guard of some sort by his seed bowl. Right now just sweep it each morning with the dyson when I refresh his water. Got him a bit over a week ago and he is pretty good at jumping on my finger now, but isn’t yet comfortable to ride my finger out of the cage. We are working on it though.

Bought my buggie in May of 2019, he was a very lovely bird, always cherping, had him for 5 years but he passed away this January of 2023. I miss my buggie a lot. My house feels empty without him. May he rest in peace. Buggies don’t last very long.

Bird was clipped too close I guess because it cannot fly. Sad to watch. I have a large cage and the other birds fly and chase each other while the blue can only watch. If it falls to the bottom, it has to climb the bars

Was excited to buy the bird and less than 5 days later it passed away unfortunately. Same thing has happened with previous animals I have purchased here.

It made me so happy to adopt a sweet baby parakeet with such a beautiful shade of lavender feathers. It is obvious the breeder took great care in raising this sweet baby that is happy, active and social. Thank you Petsmart!

Budgerigars are native to Australia and live in flicks of thousands. If you do chose to have one as a part of your family please buy more than one and invest in a large cage. Real sticks are better for their feet than smoothed round dowling and they do enjoy some seeding weeds as a fresh component to their diet however please check first as I am unfamiliar with local flora. These are beautiful, intelligence birds and deserve a lovely life. Also dried cuttlefish is their favourite treat.

These birds are so cool and cute really good for starter bird owners but I suggest getting two of them so they have company

I bought our blue parakeet 9 days ago. He is super sweet and was hand tamed in 1 day. He’s very shy, but also very young. He does not play with any of his toys & is very quiet. He loves to sit on my husbands head and hang out with us. For now he’s only allowed to fly around in the closet as we have a dog & he’s not 100% trustworthy yet around the bird.

My other bird lost its mate and began to show signs of loneliness. He spent all of his time just looking in the mirror. The new little guy cheered him up almost immediately. They primarily hang out over a corner window and are free to fly around the room. They sleep in their cage side by side.

We bought our two parakeets about a week and half ago. They are so fun to watch and each have their own personalities. However, they are hard to train to come out of their cage.

Bought a pair about a month ago and they are AMAZING! They almost right away would cuddle and play. They are also some of the smartest pets I’ve seen. They are simply the best. One thing I don’t like is about the fact that the store does not know their age. Anyways they are the best.
